I'm in a situation now where my little sister is asking me about bitcoin. And I told her that she can try to claim satoshi with many faucets. In my opinion, it's he easiest way of teaching kids about bitcoin. Teach them on how they will claim satoshi because it's the easiest way of earning bitcoin that they can learn.
Why would anyone teach their kids about bitcoin,let them learn what they want at their age and never force them to chase after financial gains at a small age.It is true that bitcoin does not have a age bar but it should be made mandatory for trading sites to implement these activities only after a legal age.

This is the reason why most of the teenagers these days don't want to go to school, what they want is to get a job and earn money. Because the tendency of kids to earn a big money gives them satisfaction to earn more, they think that it may be a way to make thier life easy and survive it. Let them enjoy their life as a kid, it is not bad to teach them such things, but the thing is, it may result to something bad.

Right, that's a good way to teach children about BTC. To collet satoshis they have to create a wallet. Then they will be checking the rates to see how much they have in USD. And thus, step by step, they will be learning things.
On these faucets there are many tutorials and guidance and introduction and descriptions about bitcoin so they will read to these articles on these faucets and so they will get the knowledge of bitcoin and then they will not need any other person to teach them.
Yeah that would be an easy way to teach kids because even if you explain it to them i think they cant understand it clearly even adults who dont know btc are having a hard time understanding it. for kids, teaching them slowly on how to earn btc through faucets will gain their knowledge about it in time.

Right now it is not good to teach about bitcoin because bitcoin already becomes global currency where many stores are accepting it around the globe. So it might be typical to explain about all the things like blockchain, segwit etc. All these technical terms might be very difficult to pronounce for them. After their graduation, it is the right time to teach about bitcoin.
although bitcoin has now become as global currency but still most of the people do not know about bitcoin. and that is the reason that still bitcoin is use as for investment and trading and not as proper currency. therefore kids do not need to learn about bitcoin as they have no concern with trading or investment, they need to give importance to their education first.

Just tell them that they can buy lots of candies when they started earning bitcoin.
And i think this is the simpliest but effective idea to teach kids about bitcoin.
I think it would be difficult for a small child to know how to get bitcoin. Even I doubt they will understand when you explain the definition or what is bitcoin?

If you teach bitcoin to a toddler then that would be useless since their concern is just to play and they dont understand complicated things. But when you speak about elementary students at ages 10 to 12 or above they can absorbed it. Anyway you do not need the complications and technical things about bitcoin but rather simple things such as how to make a wallet and to make a transaction

In fact, people are the same toddlers

Only bigger in size, of course. You still can't explain to someone something complicated unless you explain it in terms that he is able to understand. Moreover, that seems to be the only genuine way of acquiring knowledge as such by anyone, i.e. slowly building understanding from simpler blocks. Whether it is worth explaining Bitcoin to a child is another question, though. But in any case, you don't need to explain to him all the gory details about Bitcoin and the technology behind it

Small children should not be told how to get bitcoin. But you could have told them how to use bitcoin to buy things, play games with bitcoin, other bitcoin uses,

I agree. Toddlers are useless to teach such complex operations. Only lose time and spoil your childhood with a child.

I think it would look very bad as a parent if you let your child work at a young age or a child. I do not think they have time to produce bitcoin

For me, I would have been happy to teach kids coming up of the few ways to earn some bitcoin and would have started from claiming faucets since that is the basis but at the same time, I would be careful and might not even want to teach them because of the amount of exposure that will bring which might not be healthy to the development of a kid especially the advertisement that is being showed on faucets sites. Kids might easily be carried away which might change their attitude towards hardwork which is not something an adult should allow.

On these sites, many different ads that are undesirable for the development of children and it is better not to risk letting the child at an early age earn bitcoins. Everything has its time.

Undesirable ads (actually all ads) can be blocked using software like adblocker. But yes, letting children spend time on faucets is not wise. This is time that they should enjoy by playing games outside, not earning satoshis in front of a computer.

We played in the street on the street and did not think about earning money. We do not need to make our children dependent on computers, they should have a good childhood, and then when they come they will learn financial literacy.
In this world, people have their own stages and capacity. Therefore, adult's lifestyle is not applicable for kid's lifestyle vice versa. For this reason, we should let kids develop their skills, have some fun, and discover what they want. We shouldn't teach them something that is not necssary for them.

Can start by teaching some faucet of the android games app, we don't have to direct them to earnings first, point them to the fun and comfort. If directly taught to create an account on this forum will obviously cause concerns about gambling and some things that are very risky about investing.

Kids mind is flexible that means thier retaining of information is so good that they can learn anything faster. Don't just teach kids about money, if they willing then teach them programming, if they will learn programming then they will discover more and they will also discover BTC. Teach them engineering economics and proper knowledge about computer hardware and software. You're going to raised him with knowledge not raised him like he is reaching for money.

Well not all kids are into candies if you ask me. And even if you tell them that they might earn something if they do some tasks, they will be bored to death, bitcoin is a boring stuff for kids, they are Fantasy, Magic and princesses minded. They are not that into computer especially these digital currencies.

You got that right. I myself was bored the first time bticoin was being explained to me so I can imagine how it would be for kids. It's really unnecessary to even open up these kinds of topics to children who should be more worried about playing and having fun and enjoying their childhood
